Happy Valentine's Day from the quarantine crew! We started our day out great with Valentine's day cards and packages sent from the grandparents. A shout out to my Valentine who is spending a 12 hour day in class, studying, and flying at Top Gun. I got a nice wake up call from him and we hope to celebrate the day in a month when he is home. One of the most frequently asked questions he gets from friends and family is, "Is it anything like the movie??". The resounding answer to that is "NO". Sadly, no shirtless volleyball games for Bogey in cut off jean shorts. The only similarity would be that you do fly with one pilot the whole time you are in the class and Greg really enjoys the pilot he is paired up with. They work on average 12 hour days for six days a week. The group has taken a much needed respite together at Lake Tahoe two weekends and got to enjoy San Diego another weekend together. On a whole, Greg has said that it is the most challenged he has ever been and will be relieved when he graduates in March. We are so proud of how hard he is working and miss him very much. Here are some pictures of the Valentine's projects we did over the weekend in quarantine.
The girls made homemade Valentine's for the Grandparents. The most fun crafts for them are the messy ones. I got this idea from pinterest, which is a site I've become very addicted to. Some step by step pictures are below.
Ava working very hard on Valentines. It blows my mind that she can do it all herself this year. The only thing I did was write "To my Friend" and she did the rest, including folding the boxes with candy in them.
Lining them up because she is OCD. She was very excited with her finished product.
We made homemade heart stamps from Toilet Paper rolls for the girls to decorate their valentine's for the grandparents. So easy and so fun.
Ellie decided to paint hers then do red hearts. Ava did red and pink hearts.
We love you Grandparents! Happy Valentine's Day!
Our special Valentine's lunch. Another idea I stole from pinterest.
My sweet Valentines.

The Valentine cards are beautiful! I like how Ellie chose to paint hers before adding the hearts. It worked and is so pretty. Ava's overlapping of hearts with two colors is beautiful! Can't wait to receive the cards! Becca, your right about Pininterest (sp.); it has many useful ideas. Love the photo of the girls at the table with the Valentine lunch. You are a terrific Mom!
HUGS and Kisses,
